  1. WTF? You just like working too hard or something?
  2. 2x 200t 2x260 2x254 1x440 1x460 1x288 1x660
  3. The longer the drive the tighter the purse strings!!!!!
  4. PMSL funny Dean, can't wait to hear the results of the groundie test
  5. not in the least. just don't like crappy orange saws!!!:wave:
  6. Great idea Ed. Replace a good but at the moment defective saw with an orange piece of crap. Then instead of a short term problem he can have year after year to stare at it and wonder why he bought it
  7. I prefer the metal/slave girl look.
  8. You guy's wash? FREAKS!!!!
  9. Awesome pics Deva.
  10. What ya saying? That I look like some kind of christmas tree?
  11. I'm in too Lee
  12. Nice to see John is smiling as usual Bob!
  13. That's crap. Time to be more vigilant I guess
  14. Just the determination to get out of wales!!!!!
  15. Great work and a joy to watch
  16. Like any approval of contractors it is fraught with legal pitfalls, especially by such aas a council body. Compliance is often the criteria rather than excellance , both of which should be prerequisits.
  17. he is probably checking the condition of the cord within the knot.
  18. All of the above. Mainly td's at this time of year though
  19. IMHO if you are qualified and honestly impartial then do your own. You might have to introduce some caveats into your policy to allow yourself to do it. It is not advised as has been stated before due to financial considerations. Grey area, but then again it's not the only one in the industry one more thing, What's with the Mcgirlypants Ed? You still sore because I outed you as the dandy cottaging fop that you are?
  20. I have a 12ton bottle jack with a plate welded on the top. seldom used but valued tool
  21. double bowline. Nice and easy to tie midline if necessary
  22. Scary all round. I own a pair of those boots and have already nicked the toecap. Closer shave than I first thought!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  23. As a point of discussion, on the oak vid at about 3.12 onwards there are 2 cuts made where 2 tie in points are used. The rigging keeps the cut pieces quite close to the climber and myself would have prefered single tie in, perhaps even just to finish the cut, giving myself the escape option
  24. Great vids, one of Gerry and one of Frans, Bodean et al. Enjoyed them
  25. Rain not too bad here this morning, shame the garden is so waterlogged that the customer won't let us work. Not that I blame her. Not fond of working in the rain but gotta pay the bills
